400 pounds = 20 reams X 20lbs/Ream
Five hundred sheets of paper would typically weigh around 5 pounds, assuming the paper is standard letter-size and of standard weight. This amount of paper could fill a standard paper ream box or be used for printing or writing purposes.
A ream of paper is 20 quires of paper.A quire is defined in different ways.As a number it is currently 25 sheets of paper, but formerly it was 24 sheets.So, if we assume that a quire is 25, and a ream is 20 quires, then a ream is 20 x 25, which is 500 sheets.All you have to do now is to find the weight of 1 sheet of paper and multiply it by 500!Paper is often sold in different weights. The 'weight' indicates its thickness.A typical 'copy' paper A4 size, for use on a home PC printer, weighs about 80 grams per square meter (gsm).A Premier Photo paper might weigh 250 gsm.So the weight of a ream of paper depends on1. the 'gsm' weight/quality of the paper2. the size of each sheet in the reamA ream (500 sheets) of A4 paper, 80 gsm, weighs about 2.4 Kg But a ream of A3 size paper, a sheet of which is twice the sizeof an A4 sheet, weighs about 4.8 Kg
A standard piece of copy paper typically weighs around 4.5 grams, so approximately 22 sheets of paper would weigh close to 100 grams. You could also consider small items like a deck of cards or a handful of coins that together add up to 100 grams.
Take a paper of standard size. Measure its mass in gram using an electronic balance. Find its dimensions (length and breadth) in meter. Find the area in meter2. Get the gsm by dividing the mass in gram by area in meter2. Example: If the mass of a 42cmx33.5cm paper is 8.15gram then its gsm is 58 . (8.15/.42/.335 = 58) You will get more accurate results by using multiple sheets of paper. I usually use at least 10 sheets of paper, then you can either find the total area of the 10 sheets (multiply area of 1 sheet by 10), or divide the mass that you measured by 10, before doing the gsm calculation.
8000 pounds weigh the least since 5 tons is equivalent to 10000 pounds and 10000 kilograms is approximately 22046 pounds.
The weight of 5 reams of paper can vary depending on the specific type and thickness of the paper. However, on average, a ream of standard copy paper weighs about 5 pounds, so 5 reams would weigh approximately 25 pounds.
A case of 20 lb letter size paper typically weighs around 50 pounds, as there are typically 10 reams of 500 sheets each in a case.
The weight of 20,000 sheets of paper depends on the thickness of the paper. However, on average, a sheet of standard copy paper weighs around 5 grams. Therefore, 20,000 sheets would weigh approximately 100,000 grams or 100 kilograms.
The weight of 250 sheets of toilet paper can vary based on the brand and thickness of the paper, but on average, a single sheet of toilet paper weighs approximately 1.2 grams. Therefore, 250 sheets would weigh around 300 grams.
500 sheets of 100gsm A4 paper weigh approximately 2.5 kilograms.
: My understanding is weight will vary with the bond rating of the paper. Standard is 20# bond so one ream would weigh 5# or a box of 10 would weigh 50#, 24# bond would weigh 60#/box . : Citing how things work - : .... 500 sheets of 20 bond paper with a size of 17" by 22" has a weight of 20 pounds. The manufacturer would cut a sheet that big into four letter-size sheets, so a 500-sheet ream of 20-pound bond paper weighs 5 pounds.
70gsm means that 1 sheet of A0 (16 sheets of A4) should weigh 70 grams. Therefore assuming we are talking about 500 sheets of A4 paper then it will weigh (500/16)*70 grams or 2187.5 grams.
On average, one sheet of notebook paper weighs about 0.16 ounces. Therefore, 60 sheets of notebook paper would weigh approximately 9.6 ounces or 0.6 pounds.
500 sheets of 80 gsm A3 paper would weigh approximately 4.8 kg.
You need more information. You need to know how much paper you are dealing with (a ream, or some other sheet count) and also the specific grade of paper. Reams of different paper can weigh differently.
7 divided by 500 = 0.014 pounds/sheet X 2 =0.028 pounds X 16 ounces = 0.448 ounces/2 sheets
Assuming each sheet of paper weighs around 0.16 ounces, a bankers box with 2500 sheets would weigh approximately 62.5 pounds.
